The committed youth of Sandow are planning to realise a self-managed youth club in order to create an attractive meeting place for young people in the district. The young people are to be given the opportunity to actively help shape the project and give free rein to their ideas. ‘The youth club is coming,’ promised Lord Mayor Tobias Schick back in March 2023. Six containers were then provided by the city in mid-2024. Unfortunately, they are in a poor condition and completely unusable for the initiative. Renovating them would cost too much effort and money.
Despite all the challenges, Jugend Sandow is working hard to realise its vision of an inclusive and diverse youth centre. Cost estimates for 6 new containers have been requested. We are excited to see if the club can be opened by December and look forward to the foundation of the association this year.
